Teacher Ed Payne led us in a discussion of the many implications of the Cross Work of Jesus Christ. Our next meeting will be on January 24, 2022. We discussed our method of serving communion both at the church also bringing a communion service to elderly members. Changes may be coming in the next year. We began to discuss next year’s budget which will begin in April of 2022. We did approve refiling our complaint against an action of our presbytery requiring our session to rescind a prior decision to the Standing Judicial Commission. Our previous complaint, it was ruled, was filed too soon. It was shared that all nine ministry teams have leaders and that a training session was completed. We received a summary of the work of the Deacons, the Trellis, and the Fellowship Teams. Next month the session will meet with the leaders of the Missions Team. Our church has successfully changed banks from Fifth Third to Queensborough. The Trellis Team will oversee a review of all past church policy positions in the next year. We prayed for several needs in the congregation. We left encouraged by the fellowship at the last fellowship meal and the attendance and joy at the Christmas Cantata. We also discussed officer nominations for the coming year.
